 “We challenge Minister Weerawansa to prove that BBS has taken money from Norway or from any other country or organization. If he proves that we have even taken even Rs.5 from any of these groups, we will make a public apology and disband the BBS within two hours of his doing so,” BBS General Secretary Ven. Galagodaththe Gnanasara thera said at a news conference in Colombo. (Jayashika Padmasiri)

    what about people who eat fried rice using fork and spoon when in america. Isn't that a western culture. Arent they supposed to showcase the culture when abroad as well :?

    I am a Buddhist but priest should not enter politics and its a shame.This is not what Buddha thought.

    Yaka Monday, 13 May 2013 12:20 PM

    First time in my life, I support Wimal Weerawansa in this case!

    Da Monday, 13 May 2013 12:31 PM

    If you are practising buddhist go and practice don't talk the country's buddhist culture. If you know the Migettuwatte gunanada thera you won't practice buddhism in Sri lanka

    It is appropriate to declare the input of funds to shut the mouths making noise if it is genuine
